Sooze2 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 Its getting really noticable. I don't think it's Bells Palsy because its only his mouth. When he talks only one side of his mouth seems to be used and the other side stays fairly closed - he looks a bit like popeye - that sounds mean but its the only way I can decribe it! When he isn't talking his mouth looks symetrical. Does anyone know what this is called? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sooze2 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 Perhaps its just his latest "odd phase" mine went through this awful phase of doing this horrible sniffing noise! how long has he been doing it? Enid I can relate to that! He has LOTS of noises that he does but this has been going on for years. Its most noticable when he is talking freely for a while. In his first school photo he had to say sausages for the smile and you can clearly see that his mouth is lopsided. My brother did that sniffing/snorting noise for years, still does in fact. Its so irritating. Mum took him to the docs and they said it was an allergy but at 42 it still continues! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justamum Report post Posted July 6, 2008 My brother did that sniffing/snorting noise for years Thanks for that little ray of sunshine My lad has for a month or so started this along with huffing and puffing in quick succession. Lets hope he stops soon! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
